Starting Linkora v0.11.0, the app supports connection to sync-server for syncing your data (or just to store your data on cloud).

1. Setup server and its database

sync-server is a self-hostable solution that connects to an SQL-based database of your choice for storing and syncing data.

Go through the [README of sync-server](https://github.com/LinkoraApp/sync-server/blob/master/README.md) to learn how to set up the server, then continue with the further instructions here.

2. Connecting to the server from the app

Now, follow the steps using the images below:

  • Navigate to Settings -> Data.
  • Step 1 (Image 1): Click on Connect to a Linkora Server.
  • Step 2 (Image 2, 3, 4): Provide the required values and click Test Server Availability.
  • Step 3 (Image 5): If the server is reachable, you'll see a few more options to configure how the app should interact with the server. Click on Use This Connection, and Linkora will handle everything else.
  • Step 4 (Image 6):
    • A new option appears to initiate a manual sync in case Linkora couldn't connect to the server on app launch.
    • By clicking Manage Connected Server, you can view the sync type, edit the connection, or delete it, which will remove the link between the app and server.
